In both Outlook 2000 and Outlook Express, if you cancel a Send/Receive, any message that was successfully transferred to Outlook during this Send/Receive session prior to you canceling the Send/Receive, is immediately removed from the POP mail server. This is exactly what I'd expect (and what I need). However, in Outlook 2007, if you cancel a Send/Receive, NONE of the messages you have downloaded will be removed from the POP server until the NEXT time you connect! So for example, if your mailbox has 100 messages in it and you download 99 of them and then click "Cancel Send/Receive", Outlook 2007 DOES NOT remove the 99 emails you successfully received from the POP server!! It waits until the next time you connect, then deletes them. Why does Outlook 2007 not immediately deleted those messages that have already been delivered when you cancel the Send/Receive as Outlook 2000 and Outlook Express does? Is there anyway to tell Outlook 2007 to immediately delete any successfully downloaded message, even if I've clicked cancel?
